Shadow Dancing

In the afternoon the sun lights up the living room of my apartment and shadows from the trees dance upon the wall on one of my favorite paintings by the artist Howard Behrens . This print is titled Mediterranean Colors. "His paintings have a specific goal, a singular intent, no matter what the subject matter: to bring the pleasure of being alive to the foreground of our awareness". Whenever I'm feeling down all I have to do is stare at this print and I'm taken away into another realm.
